Lightroom :: Folders With Subfolders And More Than 3000 Pictures Cannot Be Displayed In Library Mode

Mar 12, 2012

I use a file structure in lightroom with subfolders within folders to organize photos; some of these top level folders contain many thousands of pictures; I have found that any top level folder with greater than 3000 photos will no open, and therefore all photos within that top level folder are not searchable. When I try opening such a large folder, the phrase "no photos in selected folder" is displayed. This has never been happened in LR3, but is happening in LR4.  Folders less than abour 2500 photos can be opened and searched easily.

Lightroom :: 4.1 - Volumes / Hard Drives Not Displayed In Folders Panel

Jun 7, 2012

I recentely upgraded to LR4.1 and it seems to have done something strange with my Folders. As you can see in the earlier version all of my harddrives are displayed as panel items in the folders panel. However now it's only displaying the boot drive and i have to drill down to the volumes folder to get to my hard drives..This is pretty annoying since i work on multiple hard drives.
 
I have read in earlier versions that people found a workaround by using the "Promote Subfolders" option until all drives were displayed. However this option doesn't seem to be in LR 4. None of my hard drives are compressed, and they are all internal.
 
It may be worth noting that when I went to create a new catalog it didnt show any hard drives begin with.
 
Original Display of the Folders Panel
 
Current Display of the Folders Panel - as you can see only one drive is displaying.
 
I am running Mac Os X Lion 10.7.4, LR 4.1

Lightroom :: 4 - Can Only See Photos In Library Mode Not Develop Mode

Mar 17, 2012

This may be related to other imported catalog bugs, but does not seem to be quite the same. In Lightroom 4, with an upgraded Lightroom 3 catalog:
 
1. Select a photo in Library mode.

2. Click on Develop to go to Develop mode
 
Screen shows "No photo selected". I cannot edit photos in Develop mode.
 
I can see and edit photos that are found in smart collections, but not photos that are simply in my collections from 2012, 2011, etc. folders

AutoCAD 2013 :: Annotation Scale Option Is Displayed Only In Model And Viewport Mode But Not In Layout Mode

Mar 14, 2013

“annotation scale” on the lay out mode,

I’m not sure about the current “annotation scale” in case of lay out mode.

Annotation scale option is displayed only in the model and viewport mode but not in the lay out mode (attached)!

Based on what annotative objects living on the lay out but neither in the model (or viewport) are re-sized? At this mode, there is no option to choose the annotation scale?

On other words, how to choose the annotation scale in the lay out mode?

Lightroom :: Renamed Folders Won't Appear In Library Module?

Aug 21, 2012

I attended Matt's Kozlowski's LR4 seminar a few months ago. He talked about not using dates to organize your folders but instead use a meaningful description.
 
So at the time of IMPORT, I add the metadata, keywords and rename the folder to something meaningful. He said the folders cold still be found by date.
 
So.....on a recent trip to NEW HAMPSHIRE, i did some work, imported files into LR and renamed the files at import into my PICTURES directory on my laptop.
 
Now that I am home I am exporting as a catalogue but only the dates and not the names I gave at IMPORT for the folders appear in the library module.
 
DOI now have to go back at the destination and rename all the folders
 
I must be missing something.
 
I want to transfer all this work to my main computer but I will just be going back to bad habits using dates to name files.

Lightroom :: Lost Folders And Pictures

Nov 24, 2012

Yesterday, I was importing pictures.  I followed the same process I have always used with LR.  I have LR4.2.  In the process, three folders were created and in two of them, 2 subfolders were created.  These are primarily stored on a Drobo.  After all the imports, I immediately backed up the Drobo to another HD.  When I went to show my wife the pictures today, none of the folders, subfolders or pictures could be found.  What LR did show me was that on the backup drive, there appeared all folders and subfolders but all had a question mark on them.  All the picture previews are there.  When I right click, one of the options is "Find missing Folder".  They don't seem to exist.  Unfortunately, I erased one of my cards from my D800E after I had backed up the files.  When I try to re-import from the other cards, LR identifies all the pictures as suspect duplicates.  I have never had this happen before and I have been a LR user from the beginning!  What happened to the folders and files?  How can I re-import from the cards that still have the pictures.

Lightroom :: Cannot Use Mouse Scroll To Navigate Through Library Folders

Dec 23, 2011

I cannot use my mouse scroll to navigate up and down the numerous folders I have in my library.  I can grab the page bar and move up and down (and while I'm hovering over the page bar, I can scroll up and down with the mouse wheel) - but only when I'm actually over the folders, the mouse wheel doesn't work!
 
It works fine when I'm in develop mode and I can scroll through all the presets and history.
 
But when I'm in library mode, the mouse scroll doesn't move my folders up and down ?

Lightroom :: 4 - Filtering By Folders In Library No Longer Works

Aug 6, 2012

in LR3 folder panel if I wanted to filter missing photos or smart collection for selected folder-s, it was possible by crtl+click on a folder to see the selection in the grid which I used quite often. Now it no longer works. I wonder why it's not possible with LR4.

Lightroom :: Folders Missing In Windows 7 Picture Library?

Aug 18, 2012

Very new with this software...watched several videos, and I'm still confused.  Went to send some pics to a friend last night, and noticed that many "folders" are not in the pictures library in Windows 7.
 
In LR4, some folders have a destination of C://users/eric and brenda/windows/pictures...which is great, but others have this destination C://Brandon(which is just the folder name).
 
how can I get the folders in the Windows Library?

Lightroom :: Pictures / Folders Not Showing Up After Re-installing?

Mar 18, 2013

I had LR 3 then upgraded to LR 4 and everything was fine. My hard drive crashed last week so had to have it replaced. my images were safe on my Drobo. I got my pc back today and am reinstalling all my software. I reinstalled LR3 then went to adobe and downloaded my upgrade to LR4. When I started LR4 it asked if I wanted to update all of my LR3 files so they would be compatible with LR4 and I said yes. I think that was my mistake. Now I can see all my old files but none of my images or folders from the time I upgraded to LR4 until now. How do I view all of my more current folders and images? I haven't moved any of them...they were all on my Drobo and are still there so it's not that I moved the files outside of LR.

Lightroom :: Moving Folders - Lost Pictures

Jun 12, 2013

Using LR 4.4 on OS X 10.7.5
 
I have transferred some folders from my internal drive to an external (FW) drive. Whereas most of the transfer worked fine, I had the following problems:
 
- one folder (at least) completely disappeared from LR. The files were moved to the new HDD (I can see them in Finder), an empty folder remains in LR under the "old" drive and there is nothing in LR at the new position.
 
- an empty structure remained at the location of the old files
 
- on some folders, I had the message "could not complete the folder move..." and only part of the pictures (or none at all) were moved.

Lightroom :: How To View Folders In Library To Make Sorting Easier

Dec 12, 2013

I want to view folders in library to make sorting easier but my template of folders (created in Finder) will not show.  Before I cull my images,  I'd like to be able to sort/shove specific images into specific folders before culling.  It appears that the only way to see these folders is to have an image in them.
 
How do I get these folders to appear in Library?

Lightroom :: How To Move A Bunch Of Pictures Located In Different Sub Folders

May 15, 2012

LR 4
 
I need to move a bunch of pictures located in different sub-folders on Drive C: to my new 2Tb Drive D:
 
I try to move it in LR via the import function with MOVE. But, they are all greyed out (not selectable) and when I try to move 1-by-1 by right-clicking on a picture, a message is displayed telling me that the picture is already in the catalogue. I know it is already in the catalogue. All I need to do is to move it to another HDD.
 
How would you do this? I have just thought of deleting all files in the catalogue and import them then, but it just does not feel right.

Lightroom :: 5.2 - Thumbnails Frozen In Library Mode

Sep 24, 2013

One is as follows: I start in library mode/grid. I have a publish service that exports to hard drive, with some folders configured. I click on any folder, I see the correct pictures. Clicking on any folder inside the service lets me see the right pictures. Now I click on any other folder outside of the publish service (say, a collection, a smart collection, a folder... whatever) and... neither the thumbnails in the grid nor the filmstrip at the bottom are updated; the only part of the screen which is updated is the filmstrip description (i.e. I read Collection: blahblah, 123 photos).

Lightroom :: Sorting Feature In Library Mode So Limited?

Jan 5, 2013

I truly love to work with lighroom. However, I hope that in the next adbobe update , that a more advanced but fundamental search/sort feature is added to the library mode.

Specifically - in Library mode --under folders -- there is no way to sort the folders other than alphabetically. Why not -- like most, even primitive photo editing software, can one not sort by date, time taken, place etcetc ... at least by date!!

Lightroom :: 5 - Library Mode Slow To Show Adjustments?

Oct 11, 2013

I'm having a serious problem with the thumbnails in Library/Grid mode taking anywhere from 5-10 seconds to "pop in" the adjustments I've made in develop and/or via the quick develop tab. I need to quickly see if large batches of images are similar in color/exposure, and I've always used the Grid to compare them in bulk. Now it seems the previews refuse to update unless I hover over that image for an extended period of time. I've even tried jumping back and forth between Develop (in order to update the preview) and Library, but 8 times out of 10 it reverts to the old preview. I have tried:
 
1) Clearing my cache
2) Expanding the cache size from 3 GB to 10 GB to 40 GB with no avail
3) Optimizing the catalog
4) Updating Lightroom & Camera Raw
5) Removing Luminance/Sharpen adjustments from all the images
6) Reducing Preview size/quality
7) Using Smart Previews
 
Because of the sheer numbe of images I work with, I have to store them on an external drive, not my Mac (3.06 GHz Intel Core i3 and 16 GB DDR3 memory). Even when I edit images locally on the machine, I have this problem. All of my software and drives are up to date, and I've got around 90 GB free on my system. making my adjustments on faith and then "re-updating" the previews...but deleting the Smart Previews/Previews and recreating them doesn't seem to fix the problem.

Lightroom :: Images Not Showing In Library Mode After Import

Mar 17, 2014

Our problem with Lightroom is this: After inporting images, they do not show in the library mode. The tree view shows first image of the folder, but the library preview does not open.- Probllem is persistant and any new images after 3 weeks are not showing up.- problem is resistant, we upgraded from 5.0 to 5.3, but problem is consistant.
 
System specs: Generic computer, 8gb memory, windows 7 ultimate 64bits.c: (SSD) houses lightroom, windows & catalogue files.d: houses inport with Picasa files.p: Container of accepted and to be edited image f
 
General process of images: Import with picasa of images, verification of image quality and rejecting failures.After all images are done, use of syncredibles program to copy new files not yet on the picasa library folder. This basicly checks and moves pictures that are currently on drive D: but are not yet on drive P. After new files are transferred, then picasa will re-import with add function on import from its own folders.
 
Directory structure: c:program files adobelightroom 5.3  (main proigram)c:uusi kansiolightroom caltalogued:kuvat (picasa image store)
p:kuvat (lightroom image store)
 
The divasion of d: and P: driwe is so that picasa will not see images that arte on Lightroom and vice versa.are on D: & P started to get "read obn
 
We have tried to study this problem, and first we notised that folders that houses images on both driwes, started to receve "read only" atrribute. Even tho we cleared this with user restrictions (folder security) the imported images still refuse to load the previews.Catalogue contains over 30 000 raw images.
 
We are starting to shoot blanks here. In short, the tree view shows first image of the folder, images are present in the system, but when you click the tree view to open up the folder, no images will refresh to center view of the screen. If pressed couple of times screen will go white, and crash LR.We have tried to "find missing files" and "folder synchronication.
